Trip to Antietam Creek 4/14/01


Here's a page I found that had some background on Antietam.
We had quite a variety of boats among the 16 boaters.



Brian paddling down the stream.

Rachel paddling down the stream.

Rachel. through rougher water... I better grab my paddle. heh

Here we are modeling our gear... Extra safety equip was needed due to the rapids.

Some rolled during this trip, here's Brian pumping the water from his boat. -Thanks MB for the pic
A few people ended up in the drink this trip. :) All were safe though.

Scenic bridge we went under.

Above and below are shots of the groups negotiating through some trees in the water.

Thanks to Mike Boyd for being our guide. The weather was great and so was the ice cream thereafter.
